puerto valarta is a great port the zipline was fun and the last time we chartered a small boat, 3 hrs $50,and he took us out to see demi moore's palace along the shore
also , pelicans diving into the water for food was spectacular, catching it on film . cabo we tried the same thing . we got off the ship and a local tried to sell us a time share, had a friend who took us out. 3 hrs $75 was a rip. no lifejackets, could not speak english as we were told, sloooo boat, puttered along only for an hour. had to get the local cop to help and get $50 back. cabo was definately beautiful inland
